The Burning Question

       Everyone has been asking the big question, "When will we be able to go to China and bring Mary Alan home?" Well, our agency says we have about 2-3 months before we should receive our LOA (Letter of Acceptance) from China. After this point, they say it will be an 11-15 week wait to receive our Travel Approval. We will hopefully travel within a month from that point. So......we are probably looking at December to January as the time we will be going on our big trip to China. This is all depending on the Chinese Government and how quickly they move our paperwork through all of the different channels. I sure wish I could speed this along. This seems like it is taking the same amount of time as it did to have all four of my others, added together! I am learning some serious patience through all of this. I know, when it is all said and done, God's timing is still perfect. He is in control and knows so much better than I do when we need to bring her home. Please be praying for our family. He is still teaching all of us so much through this. Love in Him,
